4th of Orpil Year 6656
Year 6656 Era of the Holy Feather
4th of Orpil , 6656
In a forest filled with gigantic trees
loud sounds of wood being cut echoed in the forest. A fat middle aged man could be seen near a cabin beside the lake wearing a pale grey colored sleeveless shirt. He dropped his axe revealing a palm full of blisters and blood. The man felt his knees weak and lay on the grass as he's trying to catch his breath.
"15 years away from the city I wonder what's happening in our world." He said as he wiped the sweat on his face.
The man closed his eyes and fell asleep. He woke up around noon and resumed chopping wood until night time. After chopping for the whole day the fat man went to his cabin and bought out 2 dried fish. The man piled out some wood and began his chanting.
"LORD OF FIRE IGNIS, HERE MY CALL I SUMMON YOUR FLAMES IGNITE!"
The chant sounded awesome but in reality all it summon was a spark enough to burn wood. The man was filled with sweat when he finished his chant, he then took out a improvised pot using clay and earth magic. He then filled the pot with the water from the nearby spring and began boiling the dried fish.
After finishing his meal he then started to meditate and tried to feel mana around him. At midnight a loud bang sounded at his door as a mission was left on his doorstep. He suspiciously look left and right trying to check if there is anyone there. But all he saw was trees and darkness.
He then picked the letter up and began reading.
"The destined darkness is near, those who are called go to the capital."
He was confused and just crumpled the paper. He stopped caring about the letter and just went back to sleep.
The next day~
5th of Orpil, 6659
A loud bang sounded by his door and woke him up.
"Who dares?!" He shouted.
He immediately picked up his axe, and ready to strike at the enemy attempting to knock down his door. When the man openee the door there was nothing except a burnt letter on the floor. He frowned and picked it up. When he opened the letter it was the exact same note, he then immediately throw the paper and returned to sleep.
As he returned to his bed and found the exact same letter. He let out a deep sigh and picked up the letter. After a time it takes to burn a candle, he went out carrying a bag with kitchen utensels and started his journey.
Somewhere around the forest the man was sleeping on a tree. A loud growling sound woke him up. He tried to find the source but ended up not finding any monster or animals, he went back to his sleep and another growl woke him up again. Then he realised it was his stomach. He went down and started hunting for some game, after more or less an hour of hunting he ended up having 2 rabbits. After his hunting he was full of bruises and scratches and sweat all over. The animals have prolonged exposure to mana resulting to mutation and even evolution into magical beasts.
The rabbits he hunted were both mutated rabbits with sharp claws and stronger legs for jumping and kicking.
He rested and started picking up nearby twigs and branches. After a while he started removing the rabbit skin and bbq the rabbit. Due to the long exposure to mana the rabbit meat also contains mana that strengthens the body of those who eat it. And the meat of magical beasts not only strengthens the bodies of those of consume it but also increases their mana quality and capacity.
After eating his meal he continued his journey, on his way he encountered a black bird being chased by a 1 and a half meter owl. The bird spray black colored toxins that burned the face of the owl, the owl was enraged further and it's body was covered in electric currents. The owl fired numerous electric currents at the small bird. The bird easily dodged each strike, it's eyes reflect intelligence and playfulness. The bird soared to the skies like a missle easily breaking through the speed of sound. The owl followed the bird as it soared ready to fire it's electric currents again. But out of nowhere the black bird suddenly vanished and like a missle smashed the left wing of the owl.
The owl was rapidly falling aswell as the bird.
When the man saw this he immediately went to the location where they would fall, hoping to save the black bird. When he reached the location the owl wasn't moving and the bird was badly injured. Surrounding them was 3 skinny fire wolves. When the man saw this he hesitated, but when he saw the unyielding will to survive of the bird he felt ashamed. He felt afraid just because of 3 fire wolves, while the black bird besides being heavily injured dared to face them with no fear. He strengthen his resolve and got his axe from his bag.
After climbing a nearby tree he opened his palm faced it to the wolf on the left. He aimed it at it's right hind leg and chanted.
"Lord of thunder, Thor Hear My Call I Summon Thy Power Spark!" After he finished his chant blue electricity danced on his palm and strike the right hind leg. It paralyzed the wolf for a second but that was enough for the bird to strike the throat of the fire wolf. The two wolves were shocked but quickly acted and howled into the sky.
After chanting the man became pale and weak. He was full of cold sweat as one of the wolves came at him, while the other wolf fought the black bird.
The man quickly went down the tree as the wolf turned into a blazing wheel of fire. Just when the man got down from the tree it burst into flames, and got chopped in the middle when the wheel passed through. The wolf then transformed back into it's wolf form and gave chased the man as fire was slowly gathering at it's mouth. The man then ran and hide at a nearby tree to block the incoming fire attack. The fire easily pierced through the tree and even burnt the man's left shoulder. The man screamed in pain as he tried to escape from the wolf, but when he was about to run the wolf was just right behind him and scratched his back. The man flew 2 meters and his axe as far from him, he quickly tried to stand up but he felt too weak as he cant feel his left shoulder and no strength on his right arm.
The fire wolf pinned him down as it charge his flames in it mouth ready to burn the man's head. The man panicked but when he saw the freely exposed weak point of the wolf, he decisively placed all his remaining mana on his index and middle finger shaping it into a small but sharp blade. The man penetrated the wolves throat with all of his mana. Luckily the wolf got caught off guard and had it's throat pierced before he could fire it's magic.
The man layed down as he bathe in the blood of the wolf, and losing the power to move. The last attack took all of his mana and strength, leaving him will no strength to even sit. As he tried to rest and meditate, he remembered that magical beasts has magic cores within them that gives miraculous effects to both body and mana. He slowly moved to the corpse of the fire wolf and dug out it's magic core inside it's skull. Using the opening on it's throat he finally found a red magic core with a wolf synbol on top, the man immediately tried to make a very small hole on the core and slowly absorbed the mana inside.
After sometime the magic core cracked and became pale completely different from it's redish color. The man's whole body felt like it was being burned. His whole body was very red and veins was very visible and moving like worms, it was a very hideous sight but his wounds are healing at a visible speed.
Out of nowhere a poping sound echoed inside of him. It symbolized that he successfully stepped into the world of magic. MAGI-I, this realm symbolizes the beginning for all magi it also determines what magic the user will gain after the successful.
